'''Shijingshan District''' ({{zh|s=石景山区|p=Shíjǐngshān Qū}}) is an urban [[district of China|district]] of the city of [[Beijing]]. It lies to the west of the urban core of Beijing, and is part of the [[Western Hills]] area, bordering the districts of [[Haidian District|Haidian]] to the northeast and east, [[Fengtai District|Fengtai]] to the south, and [[Mentougou]] to the west. The district consists of 9 subdistricts of Beijing's city proper.<!--Needs to be checked-->

Although the hills around [[Yunju Temple]] may also be called ''Shijingshan'', they have Chinese characters different from those of the district and hence are unrelated to Shijingshan ''District''.

It is {{convert|86|km2}} in area, making it one of the smaller districts in the greater urban part of Beijing (the immense [[Mentougou District]] to the west of it dwarfs Shijingshan District), and is home to 489,439 inhabitants (2000 Census). Its [[Postal Code (China)|postal code]] is 100043.
